First day in Karlstad!

I feel that I need to train my English because on Thursday I will have my first lesson here.

Now I can say I am very happy. Ok, it could be the effect of the light which still makes days longer than in Rome, or maybe the warm weather, by the way I feel like I found my own dimension here in Karlstad, and I do not wanna think that I will have to leave in a year, because it really makes me feel blue. Two days ago I took the flight to Stockholm, and then one to Karlstad, this time with no accidents regarding ticket cancellations. I stayed the night at my host family’s place which made me feel very relaxed before the moving. Yesterday we fixed some things to shop at Ikea and the food, and then I moved in the afternoon. I have found a room in a very nice apartment in Kronoparken, which is the nearest area to the university, just 10 minutes of walk. Today I took a walk through the park and I got to the supermarket to find something familiar. The only thing very familiar I saw was an Asiatic international student who was completely lost in the shelves of the supermarket, I know that feeling! I met two of my roommates who were buying something for the lunch. We got home together and had a nice talk and a squisite lunch. These all sound stupid things, but I really feel comfortable with myself and all the environment just after some hours here, and this is just wonderful.

Now we got some time to rest and then we will take another walk so they can show me the surroundings. In the afternoon I will meet a friend in the center, a girl who attended the same school as I when I came as exchange student, and tonight I will enjoy a party prepared by IESK, which is the International and exchange students of Karlstad association.
